Answer 1

Answer:

Aisha has 6 chocolates

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Isa has 7 more than 5 times of Aisha's you first subtract 7. Once you subtract 7, you are now left with 5 times the amount (30 chocolates.) You now divide 30 by 5 and get 6 chocolates.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not very precise with the informations, but ok.

We can say that Aisha has X chocolates. The text says that Isa has 7 + 5x. Because she has "7 chocolates more" than "5times" Aisha's amount.

So, 7 + 5x = 37

5x = 30

x = 6
